The "you will always aim for the head on a bird" statement doesn't quite stand true. Yes, if you are turkey hunting you are aiming just for the head. But Dove, Duck, Quail, Pheasant is a different story. You are aiming for the bird, not the head. Any meat that has shot in it is not discarded. I have discarded Deer meat due to "blood shock"(trauma that the bullet caused blood bruising in part of the flesh surrounding the wound) however, shotgun shot in a bird doesn't cause this. I have only discarded a handful of birds in my life. They were simply shot at too close of range and the shot was so close together the bird was utterly destroyed. I mostly dove hunt, and on a dove you are only eating the breast meat. You generally at most see 1-2 shot holes in the breast of a dove. For this product to work it eould need enough shot in the flesh to be eaten that it would edge on tearing it up. To each his own, and the inventor was being creative. I would not purchase this however. Not a chance. I might use some if they gave it to me, but that is it. I would say the inventors best chance with this product is turning it into a new alternative to "steel shot" for waterfowl. Of course it would have to be proven, and then made a legal option. If it could be pulled off however and made a good load, i'm sure it could be cheaper than currently available quality steel shot for duck hunting($20-$30 per box of 25 shells). I think the seasoning idea is quite ludacris however. Just my $.02.
